My thanks to you for informing me of your station, I shall surely visit soon. I am particularly enamoured with the old timers. At 75 yrs old I never thought I would hear the music that enlivened my home when I was a child.

Thanks, Fred, for pointing out ragtime on Live365. While you're at
it, you might also want to check out my own ragtime station on
Live365, "Elite Syncopations." I update the station with fresh tracks
at the start of every month (next update will be tonight), and I
feature a variety of ragtime recordings spanning the past century. I
try to include a healthy dose of "period" ragtime recordings (from
cylinders and 78 rpm records of the 1890s-1950s) featuring everyone
from Fats Waller, Jelly Roll Morton, James P. Johnson, Frank Banta,
Willie Eckstein, Roy Bargy, Rube Bloom, Arthur Schutt, etc. as well
as more modern ragtime recordings by all the well-known ragtimers
(Max Morath, Morten Gunnar Larsen, Joshua Rifkin, Trebor Tichenor,
and others) and many lesser-known "independent" ragtime artists. In
addition, every Tuesday night from 8-10 PM (Eastern Time), I host a
"live" show taking requests and playing a mix of ragtime, traditional
jazz, 1920s dance bands, and a few related surprises.
